This pairing of the Cult's Rick Rubin-produced Electric with Peace, the Steve Brown-helmed sessions that featured earlier, completely finished versions of most of the same tracks, seems like it should have been released ages ago. Peace (aka "The Manor Sessions") was supposed to be the follow-up to 1985's hit Love (which Brown also produced). The band were unhappy with the sound of unfinished product and hired Rubin, who insisted they re-cut the entire album. The Cult re-recorded seven songs, wrote one more, and re-recorded "King Contrary Man," a leftover from the Love sessions, and the atrocious "Born to Be Wild" cover. Some of the Peace material -- four tracks previously surfaced as B-sides to Electric's singles -- and another five appeared as The Manor Sessions EP; the full album was issued in the six-disc Rare Cult box in 2000, but has been out of circulation since. When comparing these two offerings side by side, it becomes glaringly apparent that the Cult really needed guidance in the studio. They certainly had most of the songs, but they had no editor, and the sonics on Peace make it sound like merely an extension of the previous album, even as the songs the band were writing evolved. It's no wonder they were unhappy with the finished result. Brown's production copied Review: Thank God for Rick Rubin. - Thank God for Rick Rubin. He took The Cult in a new direction & came up with 2 of the best rock albums of the '80s (Electric & Sonic Temple). I've heard Electric described as the best AC/DC album you never heard. In actuality, you can hear strong influences of AC/DC, The Doors, The Rolling Stones, Led Zep & Billy Idol. Great vocals, pounding drums, and crunchy guitar riffs in every song. If you've never listened to this band, do yourself a favor and get this album along with Sonic Temple for possibly the best Rock experience of your life! Review: The best Rock group of the 80's! - The Cult is on every plane the most underated Rock group of the 80's. This was in my opinion their greatest effort. Electric influenced many more of the best rock groups to follow this 1987 release. Soundgarden, Guns, Alice In Chains. All of these groups were major commercial successes. I don't really know why The Cult never hit bigger. True they weren't as commercial looking as the other groups with they're more gothic look...best way to say it is they were definately before their time. They brought a RAW, ernergetic, original sound to a glam,hairsprayed,polished sound and look of the 80's rock groups. My favorite's off of this A - - kicking album are ...the whole damn album!!! "Electric Ocean" is a killer smash of a tune, I love Ian's voice on anything...on this album he was just GREAT! Peace Dog is also a killer song. There is Great guitar throughout this entire album. "Love Removal Machine" is probably my favorite...it's very hard for me to say that because i love the whole thing. "Lil' Devil" is also a tune that helped me wear out a cassette tape as one of the other reviewers hadsaid he had done also. "Outlaw" could be this groups anthum! Also give a listen to the harder version of "born to be wild"....5 star high energy kick a - - Album! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000007WNN | | Best Sellers Rank | #11,635 in CDs & Vinyl ( See Top 100 in CDs & Vinyl ) #179 in Pop Metal (CDs & Vinyl) #488 in Hard Rock (CDs & Vinyl) #1,332 in Alternative Rock (CDs & Vinyl) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (634) | | Date First Available | October 21, 2006 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Label | Beggars Uk | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Beggars Uk | | Number of discs | 1 | | Original Release Date | 2000 | | Product Dimensions | 5.61 x 4.93 x 0.4 inches; 3.68 ounces | | SPARS Code | DDD | ## Images ![Electric - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/618afDlNXqL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thank God for Rick Rubin. *by M***T on January 25, 2026* Thank God for Rick Rubin.
